Vermont saw record-breaking flooding this summer, and #UVM researchers are exploring ways to predict flood wave behavior as climate change makes such extreme weather events more likely and more frequent. Yes, we have flood models to guide our predictions. But detailed models can be slow and small-scale, while simpler models lack detail. Today, the team presents machine-learning-derived flood prediction innovations at #AGU2023. Read more: https://go.uvm.edu/8ol92

Data is a powerful tool, but its true strength lies in its application. With this new data on GLOFs in #HMA let us note the lessons on how can we leverage this information to inform decisionmaking, improve #DRR response and mitigation" DG, ICIMOD New data on GLOF in High Mountain Asia. check it out here: https://lnkd.in/dVw_DCzg

From regulating the climate to transporting goods, oceans provide countless benefits. World Oceans Day is a reminder that the health of the oceans impacts us more than we realize. For coastal communities, intensifying ocean temperatures, rising sea levels and increasing wave heights create new risks. - Forecasters at NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center predict an 85 percent chance of an above-normal hurricane season in 2024. - Scientists predict most coastal communities will experience an average of 45 to 80 days of high tide flooding annually by 2050. WSP’s ClimateVue digital toolkit is purpose-built to help answer critical questions, such as how to measure and manage current vulnerabilities and how to design for both resilience and return on investment.

Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing flood management, addressing the increasing intensity and frequency of these events attributed to climate change. Its ability to process large volumes of data, from satellite imagery and hydrological measurements, enables a deeper and more accurate understanding of flood patterns.

With coastal water levels resolved for tides, storm surge - including sea level anomalies, we can more accurately project the full potential for flood exposure of higher sea level, rainfall intensity, and stream runoff anticipated with climate change. I’m excited to share our new efficient compound flood modeling framework that shows nature-based adaptation strategies can reduce flood exposure into the 2080s and expand floodplain habitat benefiting salmon recovery. The model also accounts for sediment dynamics to help plan for a complex future. https://lnkd.in/ggGHqi3t https://lnkd.in/g7VshVCQ

#Justlaunched a new dataset for #GLOFs in High Mountain Asia. The dashboard is a repository of over 700 glacial lake outburst floods dating back almost two centuries, and including recent devastating events. The GLOF dashboard captures a number of key datapoints about each flood: date, time, place, volume of water; triggers; physical characteristics of the lake dam; and the impact in lives, livelihoods, property and infrastructure. This dataset serves as a crucial foundation for further scientific investigations and providing a robust data basis for downstream impact and risk assessments.

Better predictions for human flood risk: A new 3D modeling framework developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory offers a powerful tool for urban planning by providing estimates of both frequent and rare flood events. The framework helps scientists better understand how flood risk is evolving due to climate change and urbanization. https://lnkd.in/eiiUhAPP

Global FLOOD | Technologies Will Save MILLIONS of Lives! 🟢 rumble.com/v5dsg1w-global… 🔴 youtu.be/ZU4jajrzFaE This week, the planet was literally submerged. One flood shocked local residents because it occurred in a highly unusual place. Today, we'll also explain why such unprecedented rainfall and powerful floods are happening and answer the question of how they can be stopped. All the details are in the weekly review of climate disasters that took place on the planet from August 21 to 27. Currently, there is a technology in the world that can help save millions of lives. Detailed information is available in the documentary film "Water from Air | The Path to Saving Humanity" (rumble.com/v4xi7l8-water-…) #creativesociety #monday #wisdom #trending #TrendingNow #trendingpost #trendingvideo #viral2024 #September2024
